327 Father and Son
“To be honest…” Kang Jinzhu asked faintly, “Do you have a system?”
Father Kang, who had been conflicted for a long time, finally asked a guess.
Kang De held the steering wheel with one hand and lazily leaned against the back of the seat. He laughed when he heard this.
“You’ve read a lot of online novels—is life in Africa so monotonous, boring, and lain back?”
“Of course… but that’s not the point.”
Father Kang De rolled his eyes at him, then sighed, “You blew up an RPG with a pistol and shot a sniper rifle with one hand without swaying your body. You can even jump around a few speeding cars and drift open the window to dodge the rockets. How can you explain your performance just now as if you were playing Call of Duty 16? These mercenaries captured a country in a few days, but they were beaten up by you. They could not do anything to you even if they mobilized. Is it because you were born with divine strength?”
Kang De grinned and said, “Just treat me as if I have a system.”
“Then there’s nothing?” Kang Jinzhu looked at his son, “Don’t you have anything to say to me?”
“Oh, yes.”
Kang De turned around and said seriously, “Dad, I’m very worried about you. I miss you very much. It’s great that you’re fine.”
The father and son looked at each other.
Then, they shivered at the same time.
Even the Hummer shook.
Then, they turned around and looked ahead at the same time. After a moment of silence, Kang Jinzhu said, “…So, do you still want to see the content of my will?”
Kang De said with a subtle expression, “Forget it. I’m not as thick-skinned as my mother.”
“Sensible.”
Kang Jinzhu turned around and said, “But don’t change the topic. You seem to have something on your mind.”
“Hmph, hmph, hmph. As expected of my father. Can you tell?”
Kang De lowered his head slightly and covered half of his face with his right hand, revealing a sad sigh, “I’m a mutant, Father. I’m already different from ordinary people. Ever since I discovered this, I’ve been very confused. Why am I different? Why am I the only one chosen? What should I do? Does having an ability that ordinary people don’t have mean that I have a different responsibility or even obligation? I…”
His words revealed confusion and helplessness.
This was actually very normal, right?
After obtaining his superpower, he was excited and ecstatic at first. However, after the initial excitement, he would be confused and suspect why it was him. What did this mean? Was there a conspiracy? What would happen in the future… It was very normal to be confused.
Kang Jingzhu’s heart skipped a beat.
No matter what, that was his son.
He should have been at an energetic age and had a bright future.
However…
He tentatively reached out to pat his son’s shoulder.
In the next moment, he saw this unfilial son put down his hand and look at him. He said seriously, “Father, come and advise me. As the male lead of the superpower in my game life, how big should I go?”
“…”
Kang De’s expression was very sincere, “Don’t misunderstand. I’m not a scumbag. I didn’t open the harem for my personal desires, but for the future of humans. After all, as a mutant, I might be the direction of human evolution. I have to pass down my precious seeds…”
Kang Jinzhu was silent for a moment before saying expressionlessly, “I don’t think you can marry any of them.”
Kang De was furious, “Is it really good to curse the Kang family to have no descendants?”
Father Kang whistled. “The heavy responsibility of carrying on the family line might be too heavy for you, so there’s no need for you to worry. Your mother and I can have a second child.”
Kang De glanced at him and said, “Can your words still be used?”
This concerned a man’s face and could not be said even between father and son. Kang Jinzhu said with a straight face, “Little brat, I’m very ferocious. I’ll still be super ferocious in 20 years! I’m much stronger than a little brat like you!”
At the mention of this, Kang De perked up. He directly straightened his back and said proudly, “I can cut through a marble board now. Can you do it?”
“…”
“…”
“…Let’s end this topic.”
“Oh, okay.”
Kang Jinzhu patted his head. He still felt very confused now. Everything was very chaotic, so chaotic that he did not know what to talk to his son beside him.
No, he knew, but he did not know how to ask.
Sigh, let’s wait for his mother.
He looked at the road ahead. “Where are we going now?”
“A safe place… a place that the country can defend.”
Father Kang asked, “Embassy?”
“No… Oh, speaking of the embassy…” Kang De said, “There are a total of seven of your colleagues, right? I saved them and threw them into the embassy. They’re already safe…”
Kang Jinzhu was stunned for a moment before revealing a relieved expression, “…Oh, thank you.”
Kang De shook his neck and casually said, “Why are you so polite?”
“That must be very difficult,” Kang Jinzhu said silently. “On the way.”
“Yes.” Kang De looked at the sand raised by the wind in front of him. “What a very, very long story.”
All the regular flights in the country were sealed. Uncle Wang could not persuade him and asked Xie Ligan for help. He first flew to Serbia, then took an arms dealer’s express plane to the neighboring country, Senegal, and took a car to Comoros to find clues, capture people, kill, and save people. He had to return to the other world to clean up every few days…
Recalling his experience in the past few days, he slowly exhaled.
He could relax a little.
...
—But it was not over.
There were still many things to do.
Both sides.
When he thought of this, his cheerful and happy mood after saving his father and reuniting with his family became a little depressed. Kang De’s gaze turned slightly cold as if he had smelled blood and death again.
Kang Jinzhu twisted his body and suddenly felt an inexplicable chill. This strange feeling disappeared in the blink of an eye. He blinked and did not take it to heart. He said, “Since those colleagues and I are already safe, we can find a place to hide near Moroni and return after it’s dark. Then, we’ll hide in the embassy and wait for the country to send people to pick us up and leave. How about it? It saves us the trouble of running too far.”
If there was any difficulty, it was better to ask the country for help than for the father and son to hide.
Kang De shook his head and said, “Comoros is still at war. Moreover, they just caused a scene in their territory. Perhaps they’ll be desperate… The embassy is safe, but it’s not absolutely safe.”
He took out his phone and opened the Google map. He marked the route and gestured for his father to see. “I want to send you to Djibouti. Our country’s security base there… That’s the safest place in the entire Africa.”
“How far must I go? I’m almost halfway across Africa.”
Kang Jinzhu was shocked, then he understood what Kang De meant. He turned around, “Wait… what else do you want to do after sending me?”
Kang De said calmly, “There’s a small matter that has to be ended.”
...
Father Kang said seriously, “What’s the exact situation?”
“…Don’t ask. Adolescent children will always do strange things behind their parents’ backs.”
“Don’t argue about such a thing!” Kang Jinzhu’s tone rose. “Hurry up and tell me! Otherwise, I’ll tell your mother!”
“…”
As expected of father and son.
When he realized that his son had already become a superhuman in a sense and could no longer be beaten, Kang Jinzhu still quickly and acutely realized the method to make this unfilial son submit.
Kang De sighed and said, “The person who captured you, the leader of that group of mercenaries, Little Bob Burrough. He knows who you are. You helped them excavate the king’s mausoleum. He knows that you know their secret. The danger is still there. It’s the same for you, my mother, and my family…”
He was silent for a moment before his voice turned cold, “Therefore, I want to find him and kill him.”
Kang Jingzhu’s gaze changed.
It was not only his son who wanted to be in danger again, but when Kang De said this, his expression was calm, his tone was like steel, and his gaze did not fluctuate, as if he was saying something insignificant.
He said firmly, “No! This is too dangerous!”
Kang De said indifferently, “It’s indeed dangerous for you, but not for me.”
“It’s the same for you!” Kang Jinzhu looked excited and shouted, “Do you think these French mercenaries are the only ones in this matter? No! The water in this matter is much deeper than you think! Do you think your enemies are only some mercenaries with light weapons and old armed vehicles?”
Kang De said calmly, “No, I think there’s still the French government.”
Kang Jingzhu was tongue-tied.
He had analyzed that there was the French government’s plan behind this war. He did not expect his son to actually know. Father Kang composed himself and his tone slowed down, but he was serious, “That’s one of the five permanent members! No matter how powerful you are, can you be stronger than missiles, bombers, and nuclear weapons? Listen to me, only the five permanent members can fight the five permanent members. We only need to report this to the government. Our country will help us vent our anger!”
“That little Bob Burroughs can’t escape either! He messed up, and the evidence is conclusive. Be it public or private, he’ll definitely be pushed out by the French government to take the blame!”
When Kang De heard this, he only shook his head.
“But he won’t be sentenced to death.”
He said, “Moreover, you’re my father. My father was kidnapped and bullied. He was even almost silenced. Of course, my son has to take revenge for such a grudge. I’m not used to letting others do it for me.”
Kang Jinzhu said angrily, “I’m not used to watching my son kill people either! You’ve killed enough people!”
Kang De’s expression was still calm.
“It’s precisely because many people died that there’s a need to kill Little Bob.”
His tone was calm and firm, “I’ve killed many soldiers of Gambia and mercenaries along the way. These people work for money and shoot to kill. It’s fate that they die, so you can’t blame me. However, so be it if these people die. The culprit who drove these people to kidnap my father and caused all this is still alive. I feel that it’s a little unfair.”
Kang De’s father was silent for a moment.
He finally realized the problem.
The joy of reuniting with father and son and escaping from a desperate situation had yet to dissipate. At this moment, the father who saw his son again finally realized where the abnormality and alienation he had felt from the beginning came from.
His son’s killing intent was firm, his logic was self-consistent, and his will was decisive. From the previous conversation, it could be seen that he had already reconstructed his stand and way of dealing with people without his father knowing. His world had already become as cold as steel, efficient and realistic.
Kang Jinzhu took a deep breath. “It’s time for us to talk.”
Kang De casually said, “Let’s talk after I’m done doing what I have to do.”
His father said firmly, “No! We have to talk now!”
Kang De raised his eyebrows and a trace of frustration rose. However, at this moment, his phone vibrated gently.
He took it out and saw a WeChat message.
Wang Xiaoman.
